Reviewed by Kris on 29/11/2008 this phone is terrible. i had it for two years and within the first year the speakers blew out. now i didnt use this phone for listening to music just reguar calls and the basics of a phone. then when i got a refurbished one, the battery life was EXTREMELY short and only lasted an hour. I am so happy i now am rid of the motoral days becuase i will never go back to having a motorola phone everrr there terrible phones. DONT GET IT! Rating:    
Reviewed by Ned Steel on 26/11/2008 I've just upgraded from this phone but checked the reviews to see what other people had thought about it and I'm pretty surprised - I had no bother with it over rhe 18 months of my contract, no scratches or cracks despite it being in my pocket for 12 hour shifts. Sad to see it go TBO, nice little phone. Rating:    
Reviewed by Michelle on 23/11/2008 I bought this phone about a year ago now and even though mine hasn't had cracks on the mirror glass (which is very stylish) but still this phone is awful. Its has a tendancy to freeze alot! when i turn it on its freezes and when i do a transaction it freezes! the amount of memory it has is appaling! The Mp3 is alright so is the camera except it would be MUCH better if it had a flash which would make the phone so much useful. The features are completely rubish! The bluetooth is competley and utterley rubbish aswell and also the wallpaper seems to ALWAYS dissapear. The only cons about this phone is the picture calling and the reflective glass with expandable memory. Since i dislike this phone so much i'm for christmas getting the LG Renoir! I Recommend you not to buy this phone at all! Rating:    
Reviewed by Nadia on 23/11/2008 This Phone sucks!!!!!! I got my fisrt krzr in december of 2007 for my upgrade! I chose it becuase I didnt want the razr! Everyone had a razr! I wanted to be diffrent and get something Cute,Small, and Cool! It has great feautures! I first dropped the phone by mistake in Jamuary of 08 and the screen cracked a litte! But it worked fine! But by the time June came around it started changing colors on me and the main screen would be turned upside down once the flip is open! Then one day I talked on the phone for about and hour or so and the phone was never the same again!It would freeze and start it self up continually! Till this day it still does it! Now I have a replacement phone,of course its another krzr! But i got it again because it was cheap and i had already had a case for it! Plus I really loved the phone before all that damage happened!With this replacement phone im noticing the same thing, but only when the battery dies. It seems to freeze and then flash. Hones tly THIS PHONE SUCKS DIRT! I DONT RECOMMEND THIS PHONE! Rating:    
Reviewed by ted on 21/11/2008 good lord dont buy this thing. what a waste of time and money for this phone. i would definitely write Motorola about their product. it takes so long for this phone to bring up a screen after you hit the button. the battery life is bad when getting on the web and downloading things. my next phone will definitely be something other than motorola. if you think there is a problem with the phone, theres not; dont second guess yourself; it is just the sucky phone by Motokrzr k1m .

Reviewed by Mia on 11/11/2008 I have currently got a Motorola Krzr, and just tonight the screen died. It went completely white, and will not work. The phone freezes a lot too, and the keypad gets stuck at times. I would not recommend this phone, as it is only stylish on the outside. Rating:    
Reviewed by Clare - New Zealand on 07/11/2008 GUTTED!!! Got this phone 5 weeks ago, features and look appeared fantastic, however... screen cracked despite never being dropped was just in my pocket! Now the inside screen keeps going white, the whole phone freezes, calls freeze while trying to connect and battery only lasts a couple of hours, even when not being used! Retailer and Motorola refuse to take responsibility and said it's due to impact damage - What impact???? Interesting as the retailer just told me it is now a discontinued line. Still won't pay for repairs or replacement for me despite only getting it 5 weeks ago! Rating:    
Reviewed by Clare on 06/11/2008 I bought this phone about five weeks ago. Last week I took the phone out my pocket to answer a call everything was fine. Five minutes later I took it back out my pocket and noticed the LCD screen had died. Then the screen inside kept freezing, sometimes going white. Now the battery keeps dying. I took it back to Digital Island/Vodafone said it's caused by impact damage and therefore not covered under the warranty and it will cost me a fortune to fix! The phone has NEVER had impact damage!!! If they are going to get impact damage from being in your pocket they should sell them with a permenant padded case. I am SO cross!!! Apparently the model has now been "discontinued", out of goodwill they should replace my phone with another model!! Rating:

Reviewed by Justin on 05/11/2008 I've had my K1 for over a year (replacing a V3) and must have been lucky enough to get a 'good' one... no cracks, no problems. For the features I want a phone for (to make phone calls and send texts... and I happen to like the Motorola text method) it suits me fine and, of course, it looks great - though the rubberised rear has flaked a bit around the logo now, being as it lives, unprotected, in my pocket with keys, change et al. Apart from the great styling/looks the ups for me are MP3 ringtones, speakerphone, quadband, card memory and usefully good web browsing. Downs for me are voice dialling (I normally put numbers in the phone *and* on the SIM so it wants me to tell it which to use each time, even if identical - also it plays the word recognition game and won't let you override with 'abbreviated phrases'), not impressive camera (though like I said, it's not a big deal for me), big problems making it receive images, limited Bluetooth and horror stories if I want ed to sync with Outlook... so I don't try! Also the lack of cases in a style I like is a bit of a pain. Overall though, with a good one like mine, I am a fan! Rating:

Reviewed by eyjey on 25/10/2008 Despite the other gripes on reliability and durability the main issue by far for me is the signal strength, I've had this as a short term replacement for my Nokia which is in for repair and the K1 very frequently has no signal. It has no signal in my office and other placed where the nokia did have full signal. I constantly get voicemail messages when the phone hasnt rung because NO SIGNAL! Why is this? des it have a smaller internal arial or something?? Rating:

Reviewed by Ellie on 21/10/2008 I do not like this phone at all. The screen has cracks in it. I still find it awkward to use, after using it for about 14months now (counting down til I can get something else). It gets fingerprint grubby so easily it's ridiculous, and that makes the screen hard to see. And the predictive text is so annoying, I have to write the text and then stop and wait whilst it catches up with what I've typed. Battery life is rubbish. I cannot find one thing to praise about this phone. Absolute pile of pants. I'm not the sort of person to worry about phones too much usually but this phone seriously annoys me. Rating:    
Reviewed by shaun on 16/10/2008 okay, i have had this phone for a while now and i can honestly say it is terrible. the first point to cover is the outer side which has the second screen on. Glass covers this screen and as soon as you drop it you get hairline fractures all over it. Second is the system, it always crashes. Trust me on this, its really not worth getting. STAY AWAY.

It's got quite a few scratches where the back has come off. I don't think I would buy it again and I wouldn't recommended this phone. Rating:    
Reviewed by Lindsey on 11/10/2008 It's a pretty phone, it impressed people, I was happy with it...for about 2 weeks. I never dropped it or anything, and within the first 3 weeks, there was a crack on the front glass housing...then another 3 weeks later, just from having it in my front pocket. Also, before the phone was even 6 months old, the battery stopped holding a charge for more than 2 days. A new battery did not solve the problem, nor did a new charger. It was still under Motorola's warranty, so I had it 'fixed', though I just got another broken phone, they sent me a refurb with the same charging issue and a glitchy screen. I gave up and just bought a new phone, stay away from this model. Rating:

Games-One rubbish game sudoku Battery life-Rubbish,have to charge it every day Bluetooth Connection-It is ruubbish because you have to press find me to fond devices and it does NOT work with samsungs MP3 Player-This mp3 player is rubbish because if you go on to multimedia sounds you can only play one song then the phone goes off. But if you go on to Games and Apps you will find motorola audio player but it takes forever to load. Camera-Took me a while to find out how to get on to black and white mode but got there eventually Video-Only records for 21 seconds Voice record-If you do it through multimedia you can do it for 3 mins seven secs but if you go to the side button you can record for one second less than an hour Transferring ti=hings from phone to computer or the other way round- The software does not work Rating:

Reviewed by Mrs Gillian Hodgetts on 19/09/2008 I have had this phone for 18 months and I love it. The battery has recently started to lose its charge and I have to charge it every 24 hours. It has a few external scratches now but nothing major. it is a grest size especially for texting and I dont feel like I am going to drop it like i do with slide phones. the flip protects the screen from damage and you dont need to bother with locking it. Its 2mp camera is great for snaps, remember this is a phone if you want to be a photographer get a camera, the music system is also fine. Buy it and try it!! Rating:

Reviewed by Jonathon on 04/09/2008 I happen to own the MOTOKRZR K1 and I love it. I've had it for almost a year now (i bought it September 29th of '07). The glass did crack across the top, but only because i accidentally stepped on the phone. It has been dropped several times onto concrete, asphalt, dirt, etc. The glass front is actuallt what has held up the best. the rubber-like coating over the metal and plastic back have a few nicks in it from the falls, but that's to be expected. I love the menus and they were not that hard to get used to considering my last phone was a Samsung. I've never been able to text as fast on another phone as i can on my KRZR (but in all fairness i don't use other phones very often). The MP3 player DOES support drag and drop file transfer, if I understand the term properly. Simply plug the phone into the computer via USB and access the phone in My Computer. Copy and paste, or drag and drop, the audio files into the audio folder. Viola. However, this is if you have a micr o SD card. Any and all sound files playable by the phone can be used as a ring tone. The Speaker is also fairly decent. especially is the phone is laying on a flat surface, such as a tabletop. The camera is very good, despite not having flash. Put the photos onto a computer and you will notice how the photos aren't a ridiculous itty bitty wallet size (unless you set them to be that way). Also, if you have photo editing software, and there are some good free ones out there, you can lighten up some dark photos for when there was poor lighting. I have to compliment the bluetooth capabilities as well. I have yet to not be able to do something over bluetooth. I can send any file I choose over bluetooth to another phone, computer, etc. I have noticed that LG phones are seriously lacking in BT functionality, since the only thing most LG phones will connect to via BT is a BT headset. I can also establish a dial-up internet connection (the internet speed is faster than dial-up though ) via bluetooth with my computer to fully utilize the internet i pay for through my cell provider. (The mobile browser is horrible, I'll admit that). I've noticed that none of my friends phones have an airplane mode, which is good for saving your battery if you know you won't have a signal. If you choose to, the phone also has a ton of security features. You can lock virtually any application selectively. whether it be messages, photos, calendar, contacts, games, and more. The only thing is that the phone doesn't have a way to make it automatically lock when you close it. You can, however, go though the menus till you get to security and select "lock now" and it'll be locked till you get back and unlock it. I'm probably forgetting several things I like about the phone, but oh well. There is one thing that does slightly irritate. the processor for the phone is rather slow. this is only a problem when i go to access my audio, video, or picture (especially picture) files. It doesn't help that I have about 60 full length songs, about 30 minutes woth of video, and almost every picture ever taken on the phone's camera (about 500+) as well as several large photos that I have put on from a computer. But the processor is not the main issue. The main issue is that when the phone has been trying to access something with lots of info in it, like the My Pictures folder, it tends to freeze up and reboot itself. I have figured out that it i press the center button about once a second for about 15 seconds while it is first trying to load it will not freeze. This is just my phone though. All in all, I absolutely love this phone and I would definitely buy another one (hopefully they will have put a better processor in it) FYI, the KRZR K1m has a different menu setup (what the soft keys do is backwards, like which one is select and which one is cancel), but otherwise there is no difference between the phones. Other than the obvious addition of touch sensors on the front that only work when the phone's MP3 function is in use. Rating:

Reviewed by Steve H on 03/09/2008 I have purchased two of these phones now, second-hand from an online auction site. Both of these phones have worked exactly within specification. Other reviewers have mentioned the frailties of the construction. I can only say that mine have been fine - maybe I'm just very careful. None of the software weaknesses described by others have shown themselves on my phones. In summary, if looked after, this design does what it says on the box! Rating:

Reviewed by Jim Love on 24/08/2008 I must say that I completely disagree with this review: The fact that it is generally telling you not to buy it... What confuses me is if you spend however much you spend on this phone and you think it is expensive I suggest that you don't throw it around and sit on it or do something stupid like that and complain about it breaking... When I bought it the man from the Carphone Warehouse warned me that it was fragile... so I bought a phone case the put it in-not a phone sock because that would only protect from scratches-which, after 4 months of having this phone I have not acquired! Another thing!- Don't complain about fingerprints... how long does it take to wipe your phone against your shirt or jeans? Hold it at the sides! Also... I am a fat person with fat fingers and I find the keypad utterly simple! Plus I'm sorry but I've over-read that people are complaining they cant understand how to use certain aspects of the phone or they don't know where parts of the phones' software are... Well, obviously you'd like to know where everything is but what would be the fun in that? I love finding new stuff about it out every day. I give this phone a 5/5 Full marks! I recommend buying it unless you are lazy, boring, have arthritis, or have an irrational hatred of motorola and fancy saying bad stuff about it on a mobile phone review site! And you should go and buy a Nokia brick instead because funnily enough the reason why I bought this phone is because my nokia was rubbish and broke overnight without water or me hitting it or anything! Good old Nokia (sarcasm) XD Rating:

Reviewed by Carrie on 21/08/2008 This has got to be the most attractive cellphone I've ever owned. My last phone was a Chocolate and, while I LOVED that phone, I thought it was a little 'touchy' for my tastes. This phone fits nicely in then hand and the buttons are of a good size that require actual PRESSURE before they'll click. Am still having a hard time getting used to the placement of the buttons (different from my last phone), but that will happen in time. HATE how it's a magnet for fingerprints (I have the red one) but love the design overall. It's a pretty 'dummy proof' phone, easy to use. Music quality is very good, speaker is pretty loud, even on the lowest setting. Like that I can use the MicroSD chip I had in my chocolate. Not too many complaints overall. Glad I got it. Rating:

Terrible Now after 3 months and after buying another battery nothing works.. except beeping when trying to charge the @#$%&*** thing.. White screens works fine as well...

Reviewed by Barclay on 04/08/2008 I'm probably posting this far too early to make a judgement as I've only had the phone for 3 days. It's aesthetically pleasing, new and shiny black, with a nice matte finish on the back. It's small light, but feels solid at least. However, the screen and keypad actually touch when it closes (same design flaw as RAZR), so all your greasy prints from using the keypad transfer to your screen every time you close your phone. Only gets worse through more use. Nightmare. Also, have not been able to get the Internet working, doesn't seem to have any available settings to program it, and doesn't come with software so hooking it up to the computer is tricky. Probably some software out on the web somewhere that might work, so far unsuccessful. Can't get my music on there, tried through bluetooth. Seems another failed attempt at a flip-phone by Motorola.

Next the buttons are too close together if you are a fast texter like me, you tend to catch the other buttons. Overall a goodish phone, not the best, not the worst . Rating:

Reviewed by Brandon on 20/07/2008 the only thing i liked about the phone was its design and the gadgets, but other than that, i absolutely hate this phone, i dropped it twice on carpet and my camera stopped working, then after that my screen wouldnt come one when i first flipped it open so i had to open it again, then the screen just stopped coming on. my battery doesnt even last half a day. my phone now has a crack in its screen also, i wouldnt recomend this phone to anyone, this phone is a piece of junk, im going back to LG's, those phones are indestructable, motorola is no good, i recomend LG's Rating:    
Reviewed by Jessica on 17/07/2008 WORST PHONE EVER. I am now on my 3rd krazor. My first one just starting freezing randomly and the screen would go black and wouldnt come back on for days. I got my second one, which was not the same color as my first one (not my choice) and the screen cracked and it froze all the time. I got that one replaced and now with this 3rd phone i am in the same boat. The camera sucks and the memory space is pretty sad. My brother got the same phone as me andhas never had a single probem. I think this phone is a huge hit or miss kind of thing. its a risk that isn't worth the price and hassle. Rating:    
Reviewed by mickeyrodent on 16/07/2008 I've had this phone since September 06 (it's July 08). I have just beat the @#** out of this phone (the VZW version). Dropping it on pavement, having it fall out of my car. Cosmetically it looks great. Not perfect - I'm sure under scrutiny you can find flaws, but in general, the phone looks very good. I was concerned about the glass cracking or showing scratches, but that feal never manifested itself. Maybe it's VZW's black color scheme, but it's never been an issue. Yes, it gets fingerprints. They wipe off easily. For something this glossy and cool looking, it's going to get some prints on it. I agree about the outer screen. I would prefer something better. The main screen is great, but I prefer the moto UI over VZW.s The voice recognition works great, though. I can't even remember dropping a call. It must have happened, but if it has, it's not been memorable. I keep connected in elevators and pretty much every where I go, and I travel a bit. DC/Baltimore, LV, Atlanta, SD, Orlando, Miami, SLC, Houston, Dallas. That pretty much covers the last 12 months.. I do a lot of conference calls in my car - never had to redial mid call because it dropped. I use the H700 BT headset - connects instantly every time. My battery is showing signs of wear, so I'm hunting for a new one. One other thing - I use this as a phone. I don't use the MP3, calendar, etc. For the most part, all I care about is the phone, the phone book, & alarm clock. I text maybe 10 - 15 a month, and I take a picture every so often. I could care less about that, though. Rating:

Reviewed by MEH Jones on 12/07/2008 The phone looks good and the buttons are nice and large. However... as others have already written the texting system is very slow. The camera is very lame in poor light. The videos are limited to about 20 seconds and have poor sound quality. My settings (such as ring style) have a habit of changing themselves randomly. The alarm is very annoying and slow to set up. Most annoyingly I have had huge problems downloading my pictures and videos from it. Everytime I plug the phone in my PC it spends 30 minutes trying to update the software and often fails completetly. Worst still I have only once ever been able to backup text. Perhaps this is a general Motorola problem and not simply to do with the model of phone. Basically this phone is rubbish, I wish I still had my old Phillips or Nokia. Rating:

Reviewed by Elzee on 09/07/2008 This sleak & Stylish phone is awsome. The Camera takes outstanding photos which are very clear. The texting is amazing, it saves sentances which makes it easer to text and a lot simpler. The Bluetooth can be quite slow is you are reciving a big file such as a song but sending pictures sometimes only take a second. The memory is not great and you can only hold about 2 or 3 songs but you can expand that with a Micro SD card. The front screen gets loads of finger prints and is very delicate, by that i mean it can break very easily. It can sometimes freeze & go white which is very anoying. I would not say this phone is outstanding but it is a very good phone. I would recommend this phone though. Rating:

The front shiny screen gets really greasy, but thats not a real problem.

Reviewed by Tom on 27/06/2008 My Motorola KRZR K1 began to go wrong just a few days after the warranty expired. Shortly after that it went completely dead. O2, where I had paid £139 for it, didn't want to know. 'Contact Motorola' they said. Motorola in turn, simply washed their hands of it. They told me a supervisor would ring me the following day to discuss the matter. They didn't bother. Phoned them again. They denied all knowledge and promised again that a supervisor would call. Again they didn't. Have now reverted to my 4 year old Samsung which still works well. If you are looking for reliability combined with a good after sales sevice, my advice is;- DON'T BUY MOTOROLA AND PARTICULARLY DON'T BUY IT FROM O2. Rating:

Reviewed by John on 18/06/2008 As I write this I'm well aware that this phone would now be considered out of date and the likelihood of anyone reading this review is marginal, however it has to be said that this is one of the best handset's I've owned. I've absolutely hammered my phone, having made over 500 hours of calls in the 18 months I've had it. On top of that I've spent over 30 hours on the internet. The battery still lasts for days on end,the camera works perfectly and the general functionality and software features still responds perfectly (as it did the day I purchased it). Notwithstanding the scratches, chips, scars and peeling paintwork my phone has endured through a year and a half of drops and falls, it's still a perfectly functioning handset and would probably last for many months to come. I've just ordered the V9. Here's hoping it lives up to the robust standards of the K1 [Editor's reply: Thanks for the review, John. I read it!

Battery life is horrible. Something causes the phone to turn on and off and continue doing so for quite sometime. it freezes randomly. txting is slow. and for whatever reason my sounds have stopped working... such as if i want to review my ringtones under the my ringtones menu... I cannot hear a thing. It makes calls... and recieves calls. that's about it. I have reason to believe that txts aren't always recieved by the phone either... because i've witnessed people's txt messages from their phone that I never got. I certainly feel that's not a good thing at all! i wouldn't reccommend this phone... in most people's cases expecially if you thrash around your phone often... because the screen will end up looking horrible. ohhh and you can always see finger prints on the screen because it's mirror-like. NO GOOD! Rating:

When you charge your phone your ringtone will be altered 8 out of 10 times. After a year or so the phone starts 'freezing' during use. When you answer a call you are connected but either side can hear anything. Sometime even the screen turns white. Each time you have to switch the phone off en start again. So like in the rest of the world looking nice doesn't being good at it. Rating:
